"What breed is my dog?": For best results, include clear photos of the dog standing from the front and from the side. When possible, give information such as height at the shoulder, weight, age, region of origin, and behavioral traits.

Tags

Tags go in the title of posts and must be surrounded by [square brackets]. A brief description of the available tags is below. Full descriptions may be found here. Multiple tags are fine. The appropriate way to use multiple tags is to list them separately, [Breeds][Fluff], [Link][News], etc.

[Breeds] – "What breed is my dog?" and "What breeds are right for me?"

[Vent] – Angry or emotionally charged posts. Posts are automatically locked. Message the moderators to open discussion or use with the [Discussion] or [Help] tags.

[RIP] – Memorial posts for departed pets.
Titles of [RIP] posts must be in the following format: "[RIP] Dog name, Dog breed (optional), Dog age (optional)". For example, "[RIP] Speckles, Mixed breed, 17". Some exceptions may be granted to posts with a PSA quality. All [RIP] posts must be approved by the moderators before they will appear in /r/dogs.
